On Sunday 3rd
February 2008, Twilight Shadows Paranormal conducted a joint
investigation with Phoenix Paranormal at The Inn with the Well public house at
Ogbourne St. George, near Marlboroughin Wiltshire.

The Inn with the Well (formerly named
The Old Crown) is a traditional coaching Inn, dating
back to 1647. It is situated on Europe's oldest highway,
upon the Ridgeway path of the Marlborough Downs. It has a warm cosy feel and
the most incredible feature the building possesses is a well, which sits right
in the middle of the restaurant floor. For safety, a grid covers the well which
is then also covered by bullet proof glass allowing those who do not fear
heights (or long drops into icy cold water), the chance to stand on top of the
glass and look inside the well down to the water below.

The landlord, Mike has been at the Innsince 1991. He told us that when his daughter was a child, she used to say that
when she woke up, there would be a person sitting on the end of her bed. Mike
also told us that some Dutch crop-circles viewers claimed that there was a
ghost in their room (Wayland Smithy). Reports from other residents say that
this particular room is cold and when the TV is switched on, the shower comes
on also. Mike also told us that there are graves underneath the car park.

I found Mike's tales of paranormal occurrences at the Innfascinating and I hoped we would be able to unravel some of the mysteries from
this location.

After looking around the public bar, the beer cellar and the
outside areas, we came in from the rain. None of us had felt any psychic
impressions at this point. We talked about the graves under the tarmac upon
which we stood, wondering if the inhabitants were upset by their final resting
place being covered and used as a car park. But all seemed peaceful. We could
not wait to start the investigation.

The Inn has six rooms, so we began a
tour of these.

WAYLAND SMITHY

We headed for Wayland Smithy where most of the alleged
paranormal activity has taken place.

It was quite a cold room and Jacky said that she could smell
blood.

Shelly switched on the kettle to see if the shower would
come on. The shower made a gurgling noise but did not run with water. Shelly
switched off the kettle and switched on the shower. The kettle did not switch
on. We wondered if there is an electrical fault which sometimes causes the
shower to activate the kettle and vice versa.

We set up a trigger object in this room and left a
Dictaphone running while we were investigating elsewhere.

James and Matt decided to separate from the rest of the
group and sit in the very top rooms with camcorders, cameras and Dictaphones.
They sat upstairs alone for a considerable time.

Upon rejoining us later, they said that they had not
experienced anything which they could deem as paranormal but they had left a
camcorder running in one room and a Dictaphone in another.

WILTON ROOM

This room possessed an atmosphere which was thick and heavy.
We all felt slightly uncomfortable.

We decided to conduct a séance in this room. After
spiritually protecting ourselves we asked for any spirits present to
communicate with us. We soon made contact with a male called Robert who died
aged 15. He did not live at the Inn but somewhere within
the village. He told us a very tragic story.

Jackie said she could feel 'spirit breezes'.

Robert told us that both he and a little boy named Kenneth;
aged 5 had disappeared in 1936. Although people searched for the children, they
did not check the well inside the Inn. Robert knew how
to get to 'the light' but Kenneth didn't and Robert could not rest until
Kenneth was able to 'cross over'. Robert wanted us to help him and he wanted us
to meet them. He told us that he was glad that we were there.

Robert also told us that there were two other spirits in the
building.

We think the other spirits were (sounds like) Fashah aged 67
and Vasat aged 71. We believe that they originated from Poland.
Although they gave us their ages, they claimed that they were not those ages
when they died. This was confusing and we did not really understand. They did
tell us that they were romantically involved with each other, but they should
not have been. They were caught having an affair and there was a murder but we
did not gain anymore information than that. However, they were happy within
this vicinity so we gave them with our good wishes and left them in peace.

We decided to return to the main bar area and send Robert
and Kenneth to the light.

Some of us gathered around the well. I looked into the water
at the bottom of the well and decided to attempt scrying. I have scryed in many
places and but never down a well. But water is an excellent surface to scry.

I very quickly found gazing into the well effective and I
saw the image of a young dark haired boy. He was dressed in dark clothing, I
think his shirt was an olive green colour but it was difficult to tell as he
was submerged within the water at the bottom of the well. I saw him thrashing
about in the water. It was extremely distressing.

When we felt that the time was right, we gathered around the
well, asking the Higher Realms for help and utilising the wisdom of our Spirit
Guides, we asked for our energy to be used in helping the boys to cross over to
the light. Initially Kenneth was alone. Robert soon joined him and within a
brilliant bright light, angelic beings descended and took the boys with them,
suddenly vanishing and then the light was gone. This was very moving and a
wonderful experience.

SILBURY ROOM

After a short break, we went back upstairs to the Silbury
Room. This room felt atmospheric although this was one of the rooms which James
and Matt had ventured alone and they said that they had not felt anything at
all.

We conducted another séance and although we made some
contact, there was nothing which was really connected to this building.

As it was very late and most of us were working the
following day, we decided to end this investigation

Twilight Shadows Paranormal would like to thank Mike for
letting us investigate his lovely Inn.

We would also like to convey special thanks to our wonderful
friends from Phoenix Paranormal for inviting us to investigate with them.

No EVP's were captured on Dictaphone and nothing of a
paranormal nature appeared on film. The trigger object did not move.
